Mascot has bowling, swimming, dance and a library close by, with bigger outings and classes in Rosebery, Newtown and Moore Park. We list six events, six classes and eight clubs and venues around Mascot. The Summer school holidays run from 18 Dec 2026 to 27 Jan 2027 (starting in 6 weeks). Those are the NSW public-school dates, and Catholic and independent schools can differ, so check your own school's calendar.
In and around Mascot
In Mascot itself we list First Position Australia, Austgrade Swim School, Wunderkinds Piano, Mascot Physie and Mascot Library. Tenpin Bowling and Manhattan Superbowl are both listed in Rosebery, and Manhattan Superbowl is also listed in St Peters.
We don't have prices, opening hours or age ranges for these. Ask each one what runs in the holidays and which ages they take.
Classes
- Kid's Play and Kid's Acro in Daceyville.
- READY SET DANCE, READY SET DANCE Level 1 and JAM BUDDIES in Marrickville.
- Junior Group Classes (Ages 4-7 years old) in Marrickville.
The only age range in our listing is 4 to 7 for the junior group classes. Ask the organiser about the others.
Events
- Cirque du Soleil – Kooza in Moore Park. Check the organiser for session times, booking and who it suits.
- Rhymetime at Newtown Library, for 0 to 2 years, and Storytime at Newtown Library, for 3 to 5 years.
- Sunday skateboarding lessons in Alexandria.
- NAIDOC Poster exhibition - 50 years of Deadly in Redfern.
- Bump, Baby & Beyond: A Motherhood Event in Alexandria.
The organisers publish the dates, so we leave them out. Library sessions are sometimes listed for school term only, so ask Newtown Library whether the sessions run in the holidays.
Planning the day
- Pair a short stop with one bigger outing rather than packing in three.
- Bowling and swimming suit a mix of ages, but ask each venue about age rules.
- Book directly with organisers who ask for it.
- Check the travel time between suburbs before you commit.
